LIVERPOOL, Governor.
WHEREAS by section one hundred and nine of the Public Works Act, 1908 (hereinafter termed “the said Act”), it is provided that in any case where a road in one district is largely used by or for the purpose of traffic to or from any other district or districts, and affords access to or from such districts, and the Governor is of opinion that it is equitable that the latter district or districts should contribute towards the cost of constructing or maintaining the whole or any portion of such road in the former district, the Governor may from time to time apportion the cost of constructing or maintaining the whole or any part of such road among the local authorities of the respective districts as he thinks fit; and for that purpose, and to enable effect to be given hereto, the provisions of section one hundred and nineteen thereof shall, mutatis mutandis, apply in the case of the construction or reconstruction of the road, and the provisions of section one hundred and twenty thereof in the case of the maintenance of the road:
And whereas the Rangitikei County Council has given notice, and has taken the steps required by section one hundred and nineteen of the said Act, and has made application to the Governor to authorize the construction or reconstruction of the road described in the Schedule hereto (hereinafter referred to as “the said work”), and to apportion the cost of the said work between the said Council and the Upper Wangaehu Road Board, as required by the said section one hundred and nineteen:
And whereas it has been agreed by and between the Rangitikei County Council and the Upper Wangaehu Road Board that the cost of construction or reconstruction of the said work, less such contribution as may be made thereto (if any) by the Government of New Zealand, shall be borne equally between the said Council and Board: And whereas I am of opinion that the said work should be done, and it is expedient to make provision under the said Act for the purpose and in the manner hereinafter set forth:
Now, therefore, I, Arthur William de Brito Savile, Earl of Liverpool, the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in me by the said Act, and of all other powers and authorities in anywise enabling me in this behalf, do hereby authorize the Rangitikei County Council to execute the said work; and I do hereby declare that the cost thereof, less such contribution as may be made (if any) by the Government of New Zealand, shall be borne by the Rangitikei County Council and the Upper Wangaehu Road Board in the following proportions—viz., the Rangitikei County Council to bear 50 per cent. of such cost and the Upper Wangaehu Road Board to bear 50 per cent of such cost respectively.
And I do hereby direct that any contribution hereby required to be made as aforesaid by the Upper Wangaehu Road Board shall be paid from time to time, in the proportion hereinbefore prescribed, out of the funds of the said Board, within a period of thirty days after a demand in writing made by or on behalf of the Rangitikei County Council, and such payment shall be made from time to time to the Clerk of the Rangitikei County Council for and on account of the said Board.

And whereas by the said section it is also provided that the term “local authority” includes the Minister of Public Works in respect of the construction of a bridge by His Majesty on a Government road:
